Nancy Pelosi
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide P000197.
Nancy Pelosi is the Democrat representative for the House from CA, district 11 in the 119th Congress. The chart uses the October 2026 snapshot. The position is Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score of the roll calls. Color is the party label. The place is the votes.
The first dimension is -0.489, drawn as economics -49. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is -0.173, drawn as authority -17. The other axis sits toward liberty. Voteview’s second dimension is not a pure social axis. The chart uses the public file anyway, rather than inventing a different number.
Inside the House, this first-dimension score ranks 35 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is left of the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.39). The nearest other House scores are Dwight Evans (Democrat, -0.473), Jasmine Crockett (Democrat, -0.495), Mary Gay Scanlon (Democrat, -0.460). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
A short public-record note says: Former Speaker, still the representative from San Francisco. A liberal score and an institutional career. The score is the placement. The sentence only names what the record is already known for.
One left-to-right score cannot say how Nancy Pelosi would vote on a single bill. The identity and the vote file can be checked at congress.gov through bioguide P000197.
